Italian Psychiatrists in Nassau County, NY

I was born and raised in Athens, Greece and attended medical school in Padua, Italy. I completed my psychiatric residency at Mount Sinai West (formerly known as St. Luke's Roosevelt) hospital in New York. I completed my sex therapy training at the University of Michigan. I have extensive experience working with the LGBTQIA+ population. I am able to conduct evaluations and write letters for gender marker changes, hormone therapy, and gender affirming surgery procedures. Furthermore I am working with non-monogamy/polyamory, BDSM/Kink, relationship issues, sex therapy, sex work and trauma issues.

As a psychiatrist and neuroscientist, I believe in treating both the brain and the mind.

My approach is based on integrative psychiatry, which uses medications, therapy and complementary medicine to treat the whole person, not just the symptoms. I address the combined impact of sleep, lifestyle, relationships, nutrition and chronic medical conditions on well-being, and use cutting edge tools like genetic testing to guide personalized treatment with medication and supplements. I consider the patient’s cultural background in my assessments and I can provide treatment in Spanish, Portuguese, French and Italian. My goal is to help my patients create lasting changes and build vitality, resilience and purpose in life.

I strive to help each patient find their way to live a rich, fulfilling life, by removing those internal obstacles that get in the way of reaching their goals. I take a comprehensive approach, starting with a full initial evaluation of your problems and establishing together the best strategy to tackle them. I believe that deep understanding can lead to long-lasting change. I work with a combination of psychotherapy techniques to help you achieve that change and to relieve suffering. When indicated, I may also recommend medications to treat symptoms that are more disabling.

I am a board-certified, Cornell and Mount Sinai-trained adult and child psychiatrist in New York and California.

I view each person as a complex individual with a unique story to tell, so I take time getting to know my clients and work collaboratively to develop a targeted plan to achieve their treatment goals.
